Where as tab bgr - 34 so called ayurvedic anti diabetes drug, is a combination of some herbal medicines, considered to be useful in reducing sugar. It has not been tried in any human beings. There is no clinical study at all. According to the originators of the drug it was only tried in mice, where it showed 67% success rate, which is just as good as a placebo. Plus since there is no human study, I will not be able to recommend that drug to any person.
